The Sitcom Six.
I saw one of those Tumblr posts like, "Why do TV shows have the one token gay character that is friends with a bunch of straight people, do you think we wouldn't have found other lgbtqa people to be friends with?" and I started thinking about myself.
Like if my life were a sitcom - (and that ain't a far stretch) - and we go with the sitcom standard of a group with six friends...it would be me a single bisexual woman, my bff also a single bisexual woman, a married gay man, my sister a single straight woman, a married straight woman and a married straight man (not married to each other though!). And that could make a fun sitcom. Accurate too that everyone in the social group does not have the same marital status. Unfortunately we are all white, so we could use a bit more diversity.
Idk why I'm thinking about this. I took a pain pill. For legit reasons, but I think it has me a little stoned. Well, to be fair, my brain is full of thoughts like this all the time, I just don't usually post about them. lol
What about you guys...who would your Friends-esque group of sitcom six be?

Your family WOULD make a good sitcom. Between you and your dad and your brother - esp your brother's attitude of thinking he is way funnier than he is, yes? - yeah, definitely! My family would make a hysterical sitcom, or maybe a dramaedy. But it'd be TV gold for sure.
But if it were friends, I still have three great college friends, all female, one in a serious relationship with a stepson.
Um, what? Is it...her stepson? Stepson of someone else in your friend group? Random stepson? WHO'S STEPSON IS IT, PLS EXPLAIN THE STEPSON!!!
Three others single. It'd be the anti-Sex and the City because none of us date with any regularity and we're more into pjs and wine than style and appletinis.
I think they made that show - it was called Cougar Town. Though they were mostly married, I guess, but still...your friend group is Cougar Town and you should be damn proud of that!!
